Frazz price is something between I would like to get and you are willing to pay, so add 500 to what you would pay and that would be the price ;-) That's a shame that you already bought one (not mine) but the bright side is it's fantastic to have another V70R owner among us ! Good luck with your car and do not forget it has a soul so treat it with respect ;-)

Car is in immaculate condition (2 previous owners , Volvo Pilling demo car and one private) it is V70R 1999 AWD Auto, first reg. in March 2000, in Laser Blue Met with all the features. Car is exceptionaly low milage 79.000 and rising as it is in constant use. Car has Full Sevice History in Volvo Main dealer. Car is immaculate - reconditioned interior last year (Black leather and grey alcantara), Air con serviced every year, ETM + new software last year together with cambelt at 68.000, Return Pipe done this year, New tyres 2 months ago (Nokian ZG2), Automatic gearbox is brilliant and there is no need to change fluid, Angle Gear and transfer box in immaculate condition no leaks or funny noises, Car is dry and free of any leaks. Autoleveling suspension - absorbers in v.good condition.
sounds lovely not many proper ones left wonder what kind of money it is?
I forgot to mention that dashboard was taken out last year and four plastic mounting brackets were hardened with epoxy (permanent and only solution for squeaky dashboard) so no squeaks and annoying noises rattles from the dashboard which is a common issue for these cars :-)

Last month both 02 (lambda) sensors were replaced, and this week new catalic converter will be fitted (on the way from sweden both sensors + cat converter cost over 1000 ;-). When I say that car is serviced regardless of cost I mean it !! Over 3k spent in last 2 years to keep car in best shape and condition.

I have Folder full of receipts and all previous mots, Tyres were always changed on time to maintain AWD in perfect working condition.

If you are interested do not hesitate to contact me, I am not desperate with quick sale, in fact I can keep car for another year or two. I would like to sell it to someone who will appreciate it as much as I do.Car is not advertised any where at the moment so you have a chance to see it before anybody. My email adress is klimekxy@interia.pl

Btw. As you probably found out English isn't my first language so sorry for any mistakes ;-)



Regards, Lukasz
sounds lovely what kind of moneyis it if you dont mind me asking?

Allen it's really hard to say at that stage, last week i have ordered new catalic converter and it hasn't even arrived yet. What i mean is i read frazz's post yesterday and thought to myself maybe it's time to pass it to someone who will appreciate as much as i do. I love that car and do not really want just ged rid of it. When i said i wanted 3k ,next day i would have some trader on the phone and would find my car on ebay with higher price few days later.

I hope you got my point. I saw maybe two v70r in last 5 years with similar milage in really good shape for over 4kŁ both were phase 1 though.My is phase 2 250bhp.

Allen you probably know it's possible to buy v70r on ebay for sth around 2kŁ but if you are looking for something rare you have to be prepared to pay bit more...


Offers from Volvo fans are welcome traders and gold diggers - no thx

Hi again Lukasz, don't know if you noticed on an earlier thread of mine, a guy from Belfast also had the same car as you (just a phase 3 instead) his had 85k on the clock, he was askin 7k for it!! your car in its condition would be worth 'good' money because of the 'being well looked after' factor!!!! regards Fraser,,,,,

I'm back! Trip to Cornwall was superb, i took some photos like i promised. I managed to achieve 32 mpg on the run but as i got to Cornwall's hilly and narrow roads mpg drasticly dropped, however avg still above 30. On the way back i drove bit faster and avg was 28. Today i have brand new cat fitted so looking forward to test it on the road, car already feels lighter.
